That's wrong, it's not about personal consumption , it's about political decisions to stop new coal and gas and transition to renewables which is entirely do-able.
The resources minister is a front for the fossil fuel lobby and has worked in that sector all her life.
It's not that hard at all .
You can help influence things with your vote.
So basically you want to deny the world of energy? Energy that is needed to provide consumable products that you need to live with day to day. There is not a single process in your life that doesn't consume energy. Your interaction on this forum consumes energy including powering your devices. Those devices need to be manufactured, transported & stored which also consumes energy.
Sure we can be self sufficient and drive industry with renewables as we have the geography to support this. But other countries are going to continue to burn fuel at a rate that is unsustainable for the climate. We are a country of 24 Million, our carbon footprint is minuscule compared to India, China, US, Europe, Canada & Mexico which will be forging ahead with consuming more energy to sustain their economic growth. If we cant supply it, they will get it elsewhere.
Russia is literally dying to dump their oil & gas reserves onto the open market and they are a far bigger producer than we are.
It's good to see every team has its share of morons.
Clearly the answer here is for the AFL to get Woodside on as naming rights sponsor... May as well make some coin out of it
World’s top climate scientists expect global heating to blast past 1.5C target
Exclusive: Planet is headed for at least 2.5C of heating with disastrous results for humanity, poll of hundreds of scientists findswww.theguardian.com
Hundreds of the world’s leading climate scientists expect global temperatures to rise to at least 2.5C (4.5F) above preindustrial levels this century, blasting past internationally agreed targets and causing catastrophic consequences for humanity and the planet, an exclusive Guardian survey has revealed.
2024 and people still believe in climate change?? 
*theirs
And yes we do. We have some of the dumbest folk you'll ever want to meet.
They love a good racist conspiracy theory or bashing of minority groups outside climate change denial.
You might like them, we have other boards cookers regularly join
Unfortunately trying to pretend something doesn't exist doesn't make it so2024 and people still believe in climate change??
Climate change is the world's biggest myth/greatest con job of all time. The weather is going to do what its been doing for centuries and be too hot one day and freezing cold the next.
We all know the AFL hitches itself to any bandwagon it thinks will be popular.

It’s good to come in here read opinions which you just never hear in the real world, this thread for example.
Am I missing something here?
How is that the AFL can do something about climate change?
Very strange thread, climate change> AFL's fault.
Aristotle Pickett Can you please explain.

Was thinking there a "Things I've learned from the srp" thread would be bloody hilarious.
AP typically focuses on fossil fuel sponsors. Without them, gambling, booze and Foxtel, do we even have an AFL?Am I missing something here?

Yeah I understand that, however the AFL does not have the power to influence sponsors.
It can 'frown' upon sponsors like Woodside of course, but that won't influence clubs / sponsors.
So again, how is that the AFL can have influence on climate change?
People all latch on to it with all their political ideologies but I do often thin it's got to be humanity's biggest problem, environmental impact debate put to one side how quickly can we completely replace a finite resource like fossil fuel that we rely so incredibly on.

You're a anti-truth fantasy fan, everyone knows that. You laugh at science. It's embarrassing for you mate.

If you don't believe in science, don't take medicine or vaccines.
I'm not sure if you're an anti-truther nutter or you are that gullible and ignorant, that you actually believe the rubbish on climate you spout. Either way it's sad and I feel sorry for you, and please don't vote.
